About this title

Synopsis

Vividly told for the first time, the true-life story of the 1916 wave of shark attacks that inspired Jaws takes readers to the Jersey shore in the midst of World War I, where a shark, or school of sharks, was feeding on bathers.

About the Author

Richard G. Fernicola is recognized as the foremost authority on the New Jersey shark attacks of 1916. His research became the basis for the highly acclaimed television documentaries Legends of Killer Sharks and Shark Attack: 1916, which aired on the Discovery Channel and The History Channel. He is also actively involved in the historic preservation and rescue of marine mammals. He lives in New Jersey.
